In My Final Dreams

"I was in her arms thinking I
belonged there."...Abba

So why has so much time passed
without a fulfillment of my final dreams?

Only she knows what she was thinking
each time she was within my arms.

Sharing those experiences with her
I do have some ideas concerning her thoughts.

If I love her and she loves me,
what can stop us from being together?

Well, in this relationship, time and distance
have been a formidable foe.

In a relationship of many years ago, a woman
I cared for passed away just one day after the
day we were attempting to reunite.

In a Chinese fortune cooking was this
message, "Your dreams will come true."
Unfortunately there was no date assigned...

Still I do know that 2010 is a year of settling,
for I have declared it to be so,
and she will either melt into my arms
or have no other choice then to move on.

Sad happenings as premises, but the dream has just Now to manifest! May she melt within your arms, dear James.

Lovely longing.

Love,

When decision rests on the crumbling hope of a fortune cookie it is always excellent to read the outcome of wandering hope.

A poet must leave traces of his passing not proof.

But beware the fortune cookie who found fun instead of you...

A good read.
